Iron Brooch (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

When seventeen-year-old Brigid chooses a worthless family trinket as her "something old" to wear on her wartime wedding day, she has no idea what she has set in motion. Brigid knows nothing about the iron brooch, nor has she ever been to Scotland, her father's homeland; but before long, the brooch makes its power felt, as she finds herself drawn into the world of a book about the Celtic fae - and in particular, she senses the influence of its author, a 17th century clergyman called Robert Kirk. From the Blitz to the brooding landscapes of Highland Perthshire, a dual timeline twists and turns to a startling climax.

Autorenporträt

In her forties, after a career as a hospice chaplain and parish minister, Yvonne Hendrie went full circle back to her childhood as a response to Life, Middle Age, Creaking Limbs and Responsibility. The love of books had been with her all her days, and she reconnected with the fairy stories she had adored. This led to an outpouring of poetry and short prose, and finally to a Young Adult Fantasy novel, "The Water Bailiff's Daughter". Yvonne is to be found surrounded by notebooks and the natural landscape of her native Scotland, frequently accompanied on outings by the dolls she collects (whose shenanigans among the hills and heather she likes to photograph for the sheer fun and joy of it). Yvonne holds degrees in arts and theology and has been a freelance writer for thirteen years.
